Oman Musandam cruise with transfer

This spectacular cruise will make you discover the Musandam peninsula. Directly at the tip of Arabia, in an Omani exclave, you can see the enchanting carved limestone mountains with their naturally rugged peaks, bordered by low foothills, surrounded by wadis. You will be transfered by an air-conditioned bus through Ras Al Khaimah to Khasab, which is the capital of Musandam through the panoramic, coastal road, overlooking the Gulf of Arabia and the Straits of Hormuz. You will also get assistance at the border for UAE for your exit fee and entry visa in Oman (included).
Once at the Khasab harbor you will board the traditional Omani dhow for the full day cruise into the spectacular khor as Shimm, a scenic and tranquil fiord and also the longest fiord in the Musandam peninsula. Admire the coastal villages as you cruise along and there’s a very good possibility to sight the playful dolphins and many other exotic marine creatures.
You will anchor at the famous Telegraph Island, which was a repeat station built in 1864 by the British to connect Bombay (India) with mainland Britain by an underwater and overland telegraphic cable passing via Basra in Iraq and Turkey. Enjoy swimming and snorkeling at the Telegraph Island in the pristine and calm waters of the fiord before returning back to the Khasab harbour at 3.30pm.
